If there's one thing you can count on Merrick for, it's smiles. They are so precious, I just find myself squeezing him all the time. He's quite happy in our friends 'Jeep'; moving around with a bit more freedom. He's on his way to seven months! Crazy.

They made it! Meme and Papa are here to play with us for the weekend and boy are we excited... Weston is running around in circles, wrestling everyone and everything. With all of his 'gear' on, of course.

Ryan's yummy turkey that he was just a bit proud of.

You can't have holidays without being festive! Weston helped us decorate pilgrim hats with very fancy stickers and sang us jingle bells.
Thank you Lord for all of our wonderful family!

I left the boys in Merrick's room for a minute this morning by themselves. I went back in to find them giggling together, Weston told me he build Merrick a 'nest' out of blankets. I am so thankful they are such loving brothers! Merrick thinks Weston is hilarious and laughs at almost everything he does.

This idea has changed our lives (for the better!), at Christmas. But even better, it's opened our eyes to the direct impact we have on so many other lives across the world. The power to save families, little kids, who die because they don't have access to clean water. I can't imagine if I couldn't give Weston and Merrick clean water.
Because I'm shopping less and being more intentional with my time and money, it gives me the opportunity to give more of myself; to my family and friends, the most special gift of all! I know I sound dramatic, but the truth is dramatic. Check out the video and read the stories on the website. Thanks...

About Us

This is a blog of our boys; to keep our family and friends involved with our daily life. We're not so good at baby books, so this is a way for Ryan and Ali to treasure bits and pieces of how much Weston and Merrick continue to change our lives... and we are constantly trying to keep up with them!
